Sanchez is going to go from a game manager to a super star in the next couple of years IMO. He's hungry, has a good arm, and makes great decisions.
As good as Clausen looks, a part of it for me is the connection to Weis. He has years of experience doing the things that Weis is going to do here. That has to play a part in it if you think he has the skills to be a franchise QB to begin with. I'm not sure anything like that has ever happened in the NFL before.

Still disagree.
I think he holds on to the ball way too long, is reckless holding onto the ball and is a fumble waiting to happen, and I don't think he's going to operate well behind either a more complex offense.
I like Clausen's upside a lot better. Not great measurables, but solid enough. But real smart kid with good accuracy. Granted, I think his upside is better because his downside is lower. I don't know if Clausen will be an elite QB, but I think it's a pretty good bet he'll be a good QB.
